Chapter 465: Chapter 463: She Fell into the Cave Chapter 465: Chapter 463: She Fell into the Cave Old Madam Gu called for Gu Siting to co back, intending for him not to leave the Gu Family.
It wasn’t that he couldn’t leave the Gu Family, but rather the Gu Family couldn’t do without him.
One couldn’t write the character “Gu” twice without recognizing that he was always a mber of the Gu Family, his body flowing with the blood of the Gu line.
Gu Siting didn’t agree to Old Madam Gu, he directly refused her.
The people and matters of the Gu Family would no longer have anything to do with him in the future.
If Old Madam Gu pushed him, their grandparent-grandchild relationship would co to an end as well!
The greatest reliance Old Madam Gu had was Gu Siting, how could she dare to sever ties with him.
Unable to persuade him, she had no choice but to let him have his way.
Fortunately, he was still filial to her, although his heart had distanced from her because of Ming Yao’s matter, in terms of living conditions, dical care, and safety, he provided her with the best.
Watching Gu Siting, who had just left but then rushed back in, his narrow eyes bloodshot and his expression fierce, Old Madam Gu felt a mont of panic.
“Ah Ting, what do you an by saying I did sothing to Ming Yao?”
She didn’t even know that Ming Yao had co!
Old Madam Gu felt wronged and distressed, a red flush rising to her eyes, “I may have been confused for a while, putting too much importance on the life-saving benefactor, but at least I haven’t hard Ming Yao’s life, have I?”
“Knowing full well how important she is to you, would I be foolish enough to make a move on her right under your nose?”
“Did she go to the mountains at the back? I wouldn’t dare to go there after dark even myself, and if she did, there’s a good chance she got lost.”
Hearing Old Madam Gu’s words, Gu Siting quickly had the people from the Gu Family Old Mansion search the mountain for Ming Yao.
Gu Siting also took a flashlight and sprinted toward the mountain at the back.
After almost an hour of searching, there was still no sight of Ming Yao.
Gu Siting’s eyebrows knitted tightly together.
He ordered, “Even if we have to dig three feet into the ground, find her for !”
Not finding her made him feel extrely anxious and worried.
…
After reaching the bottom of the cave, Ming Yao used her mobile phone light to navigate further inside the cave.
Passing through a narrow passage, Ming Yao saw another larger cave within.
Just as she walked in, suddenly a voice ca, “Who are you?”
Soone attacked Ming Yao, and she imdiately raised her long legs, kicking toward that person.
The two engaged in a struggle inside the cave.
The man fighting with Ming Yao was burly and skilled, but after several exchanges, he couldn’t overco Ming Yao and quickly fled.
Ming Yao chased after him for a while and discovered another person in the cave.
No, to be precise, there was soone inside a tal cage.
Ming Yao approached with her mobile phone, casting light on the person.
It seed to be a woman, with long, unkempt hair that looked like withered grass draped over her shoulders due to malnourishnt.
Her figure was frail, skinny to the point of being skin and bones.
When Ming Yao shone the light on the woman, she suddenly lifted her head.
Seeing the woman’s face pale as frost, Ming Yao involuntarily stepped back.
The woman’s eye sockets sunk in, her eyes filled with blood vessels, and her face frightfully gaunt.
Exposed to the light, she appeared like a female ghost erging from Hell.
It was fortunate that Ming Yao was courageous; if it had been soone timid, they might have been scared stiff.
Ming Yao swallowed, her eyebrows tensing up.
This woman was clearly imprisoned here, but how could she be captive in the mountains behind the Gu Family Old Mansion?
Was that fleeing burly man assigned to watch over her?
Who imprisoned this woman?
Old Madam Gu?
Ming Yao squatted in front of the cage, looking at the woman who was staring at her, and began to speak, “I accidentally fell into the cave; rest assured, I have no ill intentions.”
The woman stared at her with a vacant gaze and said nothing.
Ming Yao stared back at the woman for a while, and the more she looked, the more she thought she resembled soone.
Soon, Ming Yao rembered who this woman resembled.
Song Yuzhi.
A gaunt Song Yuzhi.
“What is your relationship with Song Yuzhi?”
The woman, who seed not to have spoken for many years, was slow to react.
But upon hearing the na of Song Yuzhi, her stagnant pupils suddenly contracted slightly.
She reached out with both hands and grabbed the iron cage, crying out hoarsely, “Ah ah ah…”
Ming Yao saw that the woman couldn’t make a sound and wanted to take her pulse, but the woman suddenly scratched her hand.
The woman’s nails were sharp, and Ming Yao’s back of the hand was scratched with a long red mark.
The woman beca emotionally agitated, and Ming Yao didn’t dare get any closer to prevent further provoking her.
Ming Yao followed the path where the brawny man had fled and saw an iron door; however, it was now locked by the brawny man from the outside. Ming Yao tried pulling it a few tis but couldn’t open it.
Now, all they could do was wait for Gu Siting to co to the rescue!
…
It was about eight o’clock in the evening, and more than two hours had passed since Ming Yao’s disappearance.
Gu Siting’s handso silhouette tensed up, and he emitted a chillingly grim aura.
He entered the midst of the dense forest, carefully examining the path beneath his feet.
Suddenly, he noticed fresh footprints by the side of a slope.
They should be Ming Yao’s.
Gu Siting shouted loudly, “Yaoyao, where are you?”
Ming Yao in the cave heard Gu Siting’s call.
She walked to the front of the iron door, cupped her hands around her mouth, and shouted, “Siting, I’m here! I’m here!”
The woman in the cage, hearing the word Siting, beca emotionally agitated once again.
She pushed against the iron cage vigorously, making a pained noise.
Ming Yao approached the cage to soothe the woman, “Don’t worry, soone will co to rescue us soon, and when he gets here, he will find a way to open the cage.”
The cage was secured with a high-tech electronic lock, not sothing that could easily be opened.
But Gu Siting knew about these things and would surely have a way.
The woman’s eyes welled up with tears, which slid down from the corners of her eyes.
Ming Yao ran back to the iron door and yelled loudly, “Gu Siting, I’m here, can you hear ?”
Gu Siting faintly heard Ming Yao’s response and imdiately called people over to join the search for her
After almost half an hour, they finally found the entrance to the cave behind a pile of stones.
Gu Siting jumped into the cave swiftly, walked through a narrow passage, and arrived at the iron door.
He drew the black pistol from his waist, “Yaoyao, stand back a bit.”
“Okay.”
A few seconds later, Gu Siting fired a shot directly at the lock.
Gu Siting kicked open the door, rushed in, and saw Ming Yao, covered in dust. He stretched out his long arm and pulled her tightly into his embrace.
“Are you alright? Did you get hurt anywhere?”
The man’s arms were so forceful; he nearly crushed her into his marrow.
Ming Yao was held so tightly by the man she was almost unable to breathe.
She lifted both hands and pushed against his shoulders firmly.
“Gu Siting, look over there.”
Gu Siting followed the direction of Ming Yao’s pointing and noticed the iron cage in the corner.
His brows furrowed instantly.
He had lived in the Gu Family Old Mansion for over twenty years, and he never knew there was a cave here, much less that soone was confined inside it.
As Gu Siting looked at the woman in the cage, she was also looking back at him.
